PART-TIME ACCELERATED OPTION

Fast-track your MBA

Kellogg’s Part-Time Accelerated Option is an ideal fit for those who have completed requisite undergraduate or graduate coursework and wish to dive into advanced studies immediately to enhance their career.

Requirements include a minimum of five courses in Accounting, Finance, Economics, Marketing, Operations and Statistics. Students who fulfill those requirements need fewer credits to graduate and can finish in just over a year, depending on individual pace.

Just like the traditional Part-Time option, students find flexibility to accommodate their work schedules: Choose the Saturday or Evening Program, and take up to three courses a quarter.

Upon application, students must have received a B or better in the required coursework, which includes at least five courses in accounting, finance, marketing, statistics, operations and economics. Many of our students have completed all of the required coursework through an undergraduate or graduate program, but this is not required. We do not accept courses completed online. For undergraduate coursework, the applicant must have graduated in the last 10 years. For coursework not associated with a degree, the courses must have been completed within the last 10 years.

For application, students must complete the online form showing which classes they have completed and which are outstanding.
